Aurora and Spring, The itchiness is still there sometimes but more like local attack. Less frequent and only in one or two spots instead of whole body. Talcum powder and salve help.As for the diet, she took only papaya and banana that have not sprayed with ripening chemical. The itchiness subdued soon. Thank you IP: Logged |

Hi Rheanna!Great news! I know when I itch, I use aloe gel. I know when I stopped eating the parsley, it got better right away and then came back a few times, then gone, so maybe with a little time, it will go away altogether. Spring IP: Logged |

Hi Spring, Yes aloe gel is very cooling. I tried it on mom on the earlier period. Morning and afternoon(or evening before sleep). But she still scratch herself during sleep. Seems like it could sustain only for a few hours before the itchiness attacked,again). Before the gel, I squeezed succulent plant and lathered the juice on her (They fixed my rashes before) but same story, night scratch. Then I moved to oil. Different kinds. They stand overnight.
